Bereavement damages are a specific sum recoverable by certain close relatives when someone dies as a result of another’s fault, under the Fatal Accidents Act 1976. A solicitor advising on this area explains who may claim, the amount (awarded to spouses or civil partners and certain dependants), and the process to obtain it. A solicitor prepares and files the claim, gathers death certificates and dependency evidence, negotiates with the defendant’s insurers, and handles any Court of Session or county court proceedings if needed. The claim sits alongside any wider fatal accident action.

Where a solicitor protects your position

The award is intended to recognise bereavement and dependency losses; if missed or miscalculated, dependent relatives may lose a potential remedy. A solicitor's professional safeguards include regulatory accountability, client money protection, and proper handling of the claim within time limits and Court rules.

John Dry

Tagged solicitor John Dry

I am very happy with the service provided, quick easy and no stress. The person who was in charge of my case, John Dry, was very helpful and made sure everything was okay and relayed it all quickly with effective communication. I am glad to say my case was approved and I am receiving compensation which is much appreciated of course. My place will be fully repaired and negotiations with the council went amazingly. Thank you so much!!
